I agree we need to extend, and not wait until any longer to do it. We
have people at the NYC conference and I don't want their memory of the
conference being that they were stressed trying to work on closing the
commit fest --- that could lead to bad memories and them declining
future conference attendance. If that delays our final release for a
week, it is worth it.
I propose we go for a week delay in closing the commit fest, and we
decide right now. Ideally I like to to see delay in one-week increments
_and_ announce that a week before each deadline.
